The studio behind Nintendo's
Electroplankton is handling the development duties for Square Enix's upcoming
Final Fantasy rhythm game, the company has revealed.
Tokyo-based
Indies Zero is the independent studio behind
Theatrythm Final Fantasy. In addition to
Electroplankton, the studio also worked on
Retro Game Challenge and
Personal Trainer: Cooking.
Theatrythm Final Fantasy was
briefly revealed last week in Japanese magazine Shōnen Jump.
According to new details published by Square Enix on Monday (as
translated by Andriasang), the game will feature characters, settings and music from each of the main Final Fantasy games, from the original through 2009's
Final Fantasy XIII.
It is one of a handful of games that Square Enix has in development for Nintendo's 3DS. Also announced are a sequel to its portable
Rocket Slime series, a new
Kingdom Hearts game, and an original StreetPass-focused title called
Heroes of Ruin.
